How can someone travel through time and space and become a beggar?

Xia Chu followed Zhao Huazhang closely with his head down, but was completely blocked by him and went all the way to the second floor.

Qingsong followed at the back, not understanding why the girl was acting so sneaky. What bad thing was she trying to do?

"Why is Madam Wang like this..." Zhao Huazhang swallowed the word secretly. He seemed to have seen Aunt Wang and Xia Tian just now.

"My eldest brother is on a blind date and won't let me come, so I'm just taking a look." Xia Chu squatted on the second-floor fence, looking down. He couldn't see his eldest brother or mother from here, but there was only one young woman of marriageable age downstairs, accompanied by a woman dressed somewhat festively. Presumably, it was them, Xia Chu looked carefully.

The girl wore a pink dress, her hair styled in twin buns, and two pink silk flowers in her hairpins. But judging by her figure, she must have weighed at least 150 pounds, right? Xia Chu frowned. It wasn't that she was being discriminatory, but for someone as handsome as her brother, this girl was a bit of a mismatch.

"Is the blind date the girl in pink?" Zhao Huazhang also came over to take a look, a little surprised.

Xia Chu frowned in dissatisfaction. Why did her mother find such a person? Could she have been deceived by the matchmaker? "There is only that one. Maybe he hasn't arrived yet?" She looked towards the door expectantly, waiting for the next person to come in.

Dong Xiaohuan saw the woman in pink as soon as she came in. She didn't pay much attention to her at first, but her eyes widened when she saw the familiar matchmaker next to her.

She rubbed her eyes and looked at the young girl again. Round and cute? Too round! She also thought her own Xia Chu was round and cute. This girl was almost as pretty as two Xia Chus!

"Mom, what's wrong?" Xia Tian glanced over there, his heart calm. He was not very willing to come anyway.

"That's too much! This matchmaker is full of lies." Dong Xiaohuan was so angry that she was gasping for breath. It's not that this girl is bad, but she shouldn't lie to people, right? "Xiaotian, let's go!"

"Mom, no!" Xia Tian grabbed his mother.

"You like this?" Dong Xiaohuan asked in surprise.

"No." Xia Tian shook his head. "If I leave first, how will that girl feel?"

Dong Xiaohuan calmed down, sighed, and asked the waiter to bring some snacks and tea.

After a while, the matchmaker arrived. She smiled at everyone she met, and she didn't mind Dong Xiaohuan's cold face. "Oh, Madam Wang, Young Master Wang, you are indeed handsome and extraordinary. Isn't he a perfect match for our girl? Don't look at Miss Qian's plump figure. She is good at housework and has outstanding needlework and cooking skills. Moreover, her father loves her and has passed down the ancestral pastry recipes to her. She will also have a generous dowry in the future. How can she not be a good match?"

The more Dong Xiaohuan listened, the more impatient she became. "Oh, take Miss Qian away. I'm afraid our family can't afford to marry into such a wealthy family."

"Madam Wang, both families are in business, so they're a perfect match. As for Young Master Wang, Miss Qian is just a little plump, but she's very kind." The matchmaker turned to Xia Tian, her tone slightly alluring. "I heard you have three brothers. If you marry Miss Qian, you'll get a house as a dowry, so you won't have to squeeze in with your brothers. With Miss Qian's cooking skills, she could easily open a pastry shop. Young Master Wang, you'd better think carefully. If you miss this opportunity, it's gone forever."

"You don't need to worry about my family affairs, please go back." Xia Tian picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"Xiaotian, let's go." A little plumper? Dong Xiaohuan was so angry that she had a headache and pulled Xia Tian away.

The matchmaker was about to say something, but Dong Xiaohuan had already dragged her away.

Xia Chu saw that her mother and eldest brother had left, and she turned her gaze to the girl. She picked up the teacup, took a sip slowly, and even picked up a snack on the table and ate it. She looked neither angry nor sad, but calm and composed.

She looks like a good girl, at least her emotions are really stable, Xia Chu thought.

"Madam Wang?" Zhao Huazhang called out after everyone had left.

"Oh oh," Xia Chu quickly stood up, but found that his legs were numb from squatting. Not only was he unable to stand up, he also sat down on the ground.

As long as I am not embarrassed! It is others who are embarrassed!

She comforted herself, stretched out a hand, and looked at Zhao Huazhang, "Help me, my legs are numb."

"Okay..." Zhao Huazhang pulled her up with a red face and helped her to the chair next to him.

Xia Chu looked up at him standing behind her like a pillar, "Why don't you sit down?"

Zhao Huazhang himself didn't know what was going on. It seemed like his brain was not working. After hearing what she said, he quickly sat down.

Qingsong had already asked the waiter to bring tea, and he hid at another table to eat melon seeds. The young master didn't look very smart today.

"What a coincidence, Master Zhao is out for tea?" Xia Chu actually wanted to go home to see her elder brother. But she had just asked someone for help, so it wouldn't be a good idea to just turn around and leave.

Actually, he had a drink with someone, and when he saw Lady Wang on the way, he couldn't help but say hello. "Yes, I'm taking a day off today."

"Oh, I don't really like tea. It's bitter." We don't usually drink tea at home, we just drink water. The only tea we drink is milk tea. Milk tea? Hey! I could open a milk tea shop! Forget it, milk is too expensive. I can't afford it.

Her expression is so rich and cute. Why do I always want to laugh when I look at her? Zhao Huazhang pursed his lips to suppress his smile, "Flower tea is not bitter, it's green pine."

"I'm coming." Qingsong brushed off the melon seed residue on his body and ran over, "Master."

"Why hasn't the tea arrived yet? Go and bring a pot of scented tea." Zhao Huazhang ordered.

"Rose, jasmine, chrysanthemum, which one do you want?"

Zhao Huazhang looked at Xia Chu and was about to ask her to bring them all up when Xia Chu said, "Rose, please."

"Okay." Qingsong trotted downstairs, and after a while, all the food was brought up.

It was so awkward just sitting there doing nothing. Xia Chu casually started a conversation, "I haven't seen Young Master Zhao in several years. He's changed a lot."

"I went to another place to suppress bandits and only came back two months ago." After coming back, he thought about going to see the little girl from that time, but he was afraid that it would be too abrupt to visit her rashly, so he never made the trip.

Xia Chu picked up the rose tea poured by Qingsong. It was fragrant and bright in color, but a little hot. Hearing Zhao Huazhang's words, he couldn't help but look up, "Suppressing bandits? That's very dangerous, right?"

"The bandits were cunning and didn't fight head-on, so we didn't suffer many casualties." Zhao Huazhang summed it up in a few words.

Xia Chu blew on the tea twice. What should we talk about today? "This tea smells so good."

"You like it?"

"It's okay. I usually drink plain water, so it's troublesome to make a drink."

Zhao Huazhang wanted to give her a jar, but was stopped by this sentence. His tea was always warm on weekdays, so he didn't need to make it himself or even ask for it.

There was really nothing to talk about. Xia Chu was anxious to go back to see her elder brother and drank the rose tea in the cup. It was still a little bitter, but not noticeably so. It seemed that this flower tea was just for the aroma. "Thank you for today, Master Zhao. I'll go back first."

Zhao Huazhang wanted to keep her but couldn't find a reason. When Qingsong reminded him that he had an appointment, he realized that the tea money had also been paid by Madam Wang, and he became even more discouraged.
